Iowa lawmakers hear study on college faculty political bias
University researchers Langbert and Stevens report that 48 percent of 12,372 professors across 116 colleges are Democrats and 6 percent Republicans, with strongest Democrat dominance in anthropology and Northeast campuses. Donor data show Democrats far outpace Republicans, while Iowa private campuses Grinnell and Luth er reflect similar party tilt. Lawmakers in Iowa debated implications for higher education and proposed a new School of Intellectual Freedom amid objections to methodology and interpretations.
